How do you fix a door lock that sticks Why does the dome light stay on sometimes after car is off and doors are closed?
BLUEYES4303
There is a sensor (usually located on the inside of the door frame) that needs to be pressed in to let the car know that the door is closed.
Try pressing and holding the door shut to see if the dome light turns off. If it does and you let go of the door, then the button is not being engaged. Maybe it is stuck. Use some WD-40 on it.
As for the stuck door, take off the door panel and spray WD-40 on it to make it easier on the door lock mechanism to operate.

If you are referring to the can light, there is a manual switch on the light that allows it to operate when the doors is closed or to automatically turn on when the door is open and then shut off when the door is closed. If the switch is in this position and the light is staying on, the switch in the door to tell it to turn off is probably not working.

The switches for the dome light on each door of a 2004 Olds Alero are at the front of the door. They are on the door frame where the door meets the frame when it is closed. If the dome light is staying on, try checking the dome light control by the headlight switch, also. It may have gotten bumped when entering the vehicle.
